Top 5 Reasons Why Car AC Is Not Blowing Cold Air

Apr 08, 2022 Car Service & Repair Blog PitStopArabia

With the summer at its peak in the UAE, one can't even imagine, let alone experience sitting in a car with non-functional air conditioning. The summer season in UAE is scorching, with temperatures reaching up to 40-45 °C. So, it is a very serious matter if your A/C is not throwing cold air properly.

Not only does your car A/C protect you from the extreme heat of the UAE, but it is also a matter of your health safety concern. You can suffer a heat stroke, dehydration, vomiting or nausea, headaches, dizziness, etc. Hence, driving your car with a non-functioning A/C is no small matter.

During the summer season, you would obviously want your car’s A/C to blow cold air to keep the temperature inside the car pleasant. However, due to some reasons, it might not do so. This can be a significant setback. In this article, we will talk about why your A/C might not be throwing cold air.

REASONS BEHIND A/C NOT BLOWING COLD AIR

1. FAN CONDENSER

One of the reasons why your car might not be blowing cold air is due to a defective fan condenser. A sufficient amount of airflow is needed by the condenser to maintain superior system pressure. If your car is idled and does not throw enough cold air, it might be due to a malfunctioning fan condenser.

2. LEAKING REFRIGERANT

A leakage in the vehicle's refrigerant might also cause the A/C to not blow cold air. The compressor will not circulate air properly if the pressure is low in the system. This will result in your car’s A/C blowing hot air instead of cold. This leakage can occur anywhere in the unit hose connection of the A/C.

3. FAULTY COMPRESSOR

The purpose of an A/C compressor is to keep the refrigerant pressurized. However, it might cease to do so if sufficient amounts of oil are not supplied to it. This will lead to the A/C not blowing cold air inside the cabin, heating up the cabin and making it highly uncomfortable for everyone inside the car.

4. BLOCKED A/C FILTER

The purpose of the A/C filter, which is usually situated in the cabin, is to trap the dust particles and ensure that clean air enters inside the cabin. If the filter is blocked due to accumulated dust, it will block the air from entering the cabin and result in low cooling inside the car. A blocked A/C filter can also damage the A/C condenser and motor fan as well as it will put extra pressure on them as a sufficient amount of air is not being reached.

5. FAULTY MOTOR FAN

The motor fan, with time, can accumulate debris. This can harm the motor fan as well. It causes a hindrance in the circulation of cold air to the condenser. As a result, warm air is blown inside the cabin instead of cold.
